Rene Binet Art Nouveau Industrial and Architectural Designs - ebook
Dates:1.1.2050-1.1.2999
his first volume is dedicated to the 60 sketches of his industrial and architectural designs as found in the Esquisses décoratives.
The sketches include a shelter, clips, rings, wardrobe, balcony, bench, jewelry, frame trim, electric buttons, decorative bricks, tiling, ceramic, capitals, keys, gates (wood and grilled), nails, corbels, towers, country decorations, industrial signs, finials, stairway, printed fabrics, ridgepole decorations, wrought iron, ironworks, fountain, frieze, weather vanes, door-knockers, lead inlay, gardens, lanters, chandeliers, showcases, stores,
marquetry, embossed metal, mosaic, wallpaper, mast bases, hinges, ceilings, door plates, stencil, porch, door, rinceau, rosettes, sgraffito, seats, pedestals, carpet, needlepoint tapestry, trellis, tympanum, stained glass and arches and arcs.
René Binet was born in Chaumont, Yonne [Burgundy region] on the 14th of October, 1866 to Savinien Joseph Binet, a railway tracklayer and Marie Grosset, a housekeeper.
He attended the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts (ENSBA), from 1886 until about 1892, and was a student of Victor Laloux. Binet was an architect, decorator, and painter. Perhaps his most culturally significant contribution was his design of the main entry for the Paris Exhibition of 1900, a commission that he won. He is considered an artist of La Belle Epoque, executing his designs in the style of Art Nouveau. Two Paris addresses are associated with the artist: 6 rue de l’Abbaye and 33 rue Bonaparte.
According to the Musée d’Orsay, René Binet “discovered Italy after winning, in 1893, the Chaudesaigues prize, which enabled young architects to spend two years there”. Along with Italy, Binet also traveled to Sicily, Algeria and Spain. The museum also attributes these trips to his interest in watercolor painting. According to the museum, he traveled frequently which provided him some relief from his rheumatism. In 1903, an exhibition, at the Galerie Paul Durand-Ruel in Paris, featured his watercolor paintings.
His work was also greatly influenced by the research and illustrations of Ernst Haeckel. Gustave Geffroy, in his forward to Esquisses décoratives, notes that Binet viewed the Clathrocanium reginae as the most beautiful and a perfect representation of the richness and logic of the Radiolaria family. Geffroy also points out that it is the Clathrocanium reginae that inspired the design of the Porte Monumentale [main entrance] of the Exposition Universelle of 1900. You can see illustrations of these geometric and microscopic sea creature skeletons in the next volume of Binet’s works or in the separate edition of Haeckel’s works from delsc.
Binet died in 1911 in Ouchy, Switzerland.
A second volume includes some of architectural projects such as the Porte Monumentale for the Exposition Universelle of 1900, the Printemps department store and his many watercolor paintings from Versailles and the Trianons.

Dates:12.10.2013-12.10.2013
"Les estaminets bruxellois offrent des atmosphères très variées. Nombre d’entre-eux ont conservé leur décor Art nouveau ou Art Déco. Leurs vitraux, leurs boiseries précieuses aux courbes élégantes, leurs riches étoffes, leurs miroirs, leurs comptoirs rutilants se souviennent de la Belle Époque, des années folles et jazzy… et témoignent de l’évolution des goûts: grands cafés lumineux, ouverts, animés au début du siècle, plus secrets, intimistes, feutrés dans l’entre-deux-guerres. On les découvre ensemble ?
Deux consommations comprises dans le prix."

Promenades Art Nouveau à Bruxelles
Dates:1.1.2050-1.1.2999
Bruxelles mérite sans conteste le titre de capitale de l'architecture Art nouveau. Entre l'hôtel Tassel, première maison Art nouveau construite par Victor Horta en 1893, et le palais Stoclet, chef-d'oeuvre de Joseph Hoffmann terminé peu avant le début de la Première Guerre mondiale, Bruxelles a vu s'ériger quelque 500 maisons ou façades Art nouveau actuellement cataloguées. Ce guide propose quatre circuits permettant de découvrir l'essentiel de ce patrimoine exceptionnel. Les trois premières promenades (le quartier Louise, les étangs d'Ixelles, le square Ambiorix et ses environs) peuvent se faire à pied en une demi-journée chacune. La quatrième promenade, couvrant plusieurs quartiers anciens, peut se faire en voiture ou être scindée en plusieurs visites à pied.

Privat Livemont : entre tradition et modernité au coeur de l'Art Nouveau
Dates:1.9.2050-1.1.2999
Après des études à l'académie de dessin de Saint-Josse, aux côtés d'Adolphe Crespin, Paul Saintenoy et Léon Govaerts, Privat Livemont remporte une bourse qui lui permet d'approfondir sa formation de peintre-décorateur à Paris. Entre 1883 et 1889, il est associé à d'importants travaux, comme la décoration de l'hôtel de ville de Paris, l'inventaire dessiné du mobilier de la Comédie-Française ou encore les décors d'Hamlet pour l'opéra Garnier.
Revenu à Schaerbeek, il fonde son studio de décoration et remporte par hasard, en 1890, le premier concours pour l'affiche annonçant l'exposition d'art du cercle artistique local. Gravant lui-même sur la pierre lithographique, il produit une quarantaine d'affiches qui rivalisent avec celles d'Alphonse Mucha, principalement entre 1896 et 1904, pour des firmes belges, hollandaises et parisiennes, qui sont exposées à Bruxelles, Paris, Londres, Saint-Pétersbourg, Haarlem, ...
Parallèlement à ses activités d'affichiste, il réalise de grandes peintures décoratives, des panneaux de céramique ou des vitraux. Professeur de composition décorative et de peinture de fleurs à l'école industrielle de Schaerbeek, il réalise également de nombreux sgraffites sur des bâtiments bruxellois.

Pre-Raphaelites : Victorian Avant-Garde
Dates:3.6.2013-1.9.2013
The first major survey of the art of the Pre-Raphaelites to be shown in the United States features some 130 paintings, sculptures, works on paper, and decorative art objects. The young members of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, formed in 1848, shook the art world of mid-19th-century Britain by rejecting traditional approaches to painting. Combining scientific precision, an innovative approach to subject matter, and brilliant, clear colors, Pre-Raphaelitism was Britain's first avant-garde art movement.

Pierre Puvis de Chavannes
Dates:1.1.2050-1.1.2999
[...]L’ouvrage se présente en deux volumes. Le premier, consacré à la biographie et à l’étude stylistique de l’œuvre, est complété de diverses annexes fort intéressantes puisqu’en rapport avec l’activité du notaire qui fut chargé, le 14 novembre 1898, de dresser l’inventaire après décès de l’artiste, aussi bien dans son atelier du 11 rue Pigalle que dans sa propriété de Neuilly. Découpée chronologiquement cette biographie largement annotée est superbement illustrée. Accompagnée de nombreuses figures de comparaison fort intéressantes, elle permet de replacer le peintre dans son temps et de percevoir son originalité tout en jugeant des formes de sa réception critique, même si certains pourront émettre des réserves sur les tendances un peu trop louangeuses des extraits choisis et sur l’analyse un peu partiale de certains faits. La présentation de plusieurs des caricatures que Puvis se plut à dessiner rapidement tout au long de sa vie vient ajouter une note nouvelle et non conventionnelle à la biographie d’un artiste que l’on a trop souvent tendance à cantonner parmi les rigoristes sans humour.[...]

Peter Behrens. From Jugendstil to Industrial Design
Dates:24.3.2013-16.6.2013
Peter Behrens’ (1868–1940) artistic work encompasses all areas of applied art: book design and typography, painting and graphic reproduction, ceramic works such as tiles, pitchers and vases, furniture of all kinds and for every purpose, porcelain services, jewellery, silver and pewter articles such as cutlery and sets, wallpaper, textiles such as clothing, fabrics, carpets, table cloths, napkins and wall hangings, drinking glasses, carafes and glass vases, advertising art, posters and much more. Although he was a self-educated industrial designer, Peter Behrens was first and foremost an architect. During the first three decades of the 20th century, numerous villas, residential buildings, industrial facilities and worker housing estates were built according to his designs. Peter Behrens has influenced or played a decisive role in designing practically every area of life, the working world, its products and amenities. Like Henry van de Velde, Peter Behrens was an »all-around« artist, too. After 1901, he established himself as one of the most important architects of modernism, leaving behind a rich legacy of industrial and administrative buildings, villas and entire housing estates. Behrens is also renowned for his role as mentor to Walter Gropius, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and even Le Corbusier for a time.
From Jugendstil to Industrial Design
Thanks to the fervent interest in Behrens’ works by a private collector from Hamburg over many decades, the Kunsthalle Erfurt can now exhibit a vast collection of furnishings and household articles designed by this exceptional artist. The collection contains nearly the entire oeuvre of Behrens’ handicraft, excellent furniture, books and other artworks associated with the artist.
Concurrent with the major exhibition of Henry van de Velde’s complete works in Weimar, this exhibition focuses on Peter Behrens artistic works, supplemented with selected pieces by other renowned designers. The Hamburg collection offers a myriad of comparative examples, including rare works by Christopher Dresser who remains relatively unknown in Germany. Older than Behrens by a generation, this English designer was one of the pioneers of modernism around 1900. Precious handcrafted works produced in the Viennese workshops of Josef Hoffman and Kolo Moser, and works by Richard Riemerschmid and Henry van de Velde round off this extraordinary panorama.
For the first time since 1980, visitors have the opportunity to rediscover the extensive range of works by Peter Behrens during the Van de Velde Year 2013. It offers a unique opportunity to experience simultaneous exhibitions, featuring two of Germany’s most important designers of modern times.

Pensar i interpretar l'oci. Passatemps, entreteniments, aficions i addiccions a la Barcelona del 1900
Dates:1.1.2050-1.1.2999
L’efervescència de la Barcelona del 1900, en procés de modernització, va afavorir l’aparició d’una cultura de l’oci que va viure un moment sense precedents. Els barcelonins utilitzaven el seu temps lliure i es relacionaven entre ells amb iniciatives i activitats de caràcter molt divers, algunes de les quals ja existien i d’altres eren de nova creació. Més enllà de les celebracions tradicionals (festes majors, fontades, processons), es van emprendre innovadores formes de consum cultural, per a tots els gustos i per a totes les butxaques. Es van obrir nombroses sales de cinema, els primers parcs d’atraccions i nous teatres, gràcies als quals el Paral·lel va esdevenir l’epicentre de la nit barcelonina. Aquest llibre ofereix un repertori d’imatges de les diversions, dels entreteniments, de les aficions d’aquella fascinant època de contrastos, la del modernisme.
